Hockey in August?! Hockey in August. It’s been a long off-season, but nothing like pre-World Junior mini tournament to get us excited for the upcoming year. As you’ve probably noticed, our own Ryan Biech was hard at work covering the event. 4 Canucks prospects attended the Summer Showcase in Plymouth: Jonah Gadjovich, Michael DiPietro, and Kole Lind for Canada, and Elias Pettersson for Sweden. Will Lockwood was there as well, but didn’t play as he’s recovering from shoulder surgery. Miss an article? I’ve got you covered with our Plays of the Week!
